Lawyer focused on litigation support, corporate law, and dispute resolution excellence.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven budding barrister with demonstrated expertise in litigation support, corporate law practice, and alternative dispute resolution. I’ve built a strong record in client relationship management, legal research, and legal drafting, including observing 50+ court proceedings and supporting filings and registry procedures. During my law office attachment at PALMSTARS SOLICITOR, I handled structured client interviews, mediated a landlord-tenant dispute, and drafted key documents such as a deed of assignment and bail applications.
I bring strong leadership, from collaborating on winning moot case strategy to representing corps members in disciplinary proceedings. I’m driven to keep growing and advancing my career—bringing clear communication, careful attention to detail, and dependable advocacy to every matter.
